Sorry, but I have been away from my looms. I am looking forward to a workshop given by "Just Our Yarn" next week. They have some awesome painted warps for us to play with.

But until then, I thought you might like to see our guild in action.....

Excuse the poor quality of this photo... but this is one of the ways in the guild that we keep track of what we want to accomplish each year. Sometimes we accomplish our goals, other times.... we take the fifth!

I am excited to be attending a workshop put on by "Just Our Yarn" in early June. We are going to get to see some great yarns and have fun too! This will be a round-robin and my draft is an advancing twill. So I will get this party started....

This was not just your usual weaving guild meeting. We were bringing our items that were our yearly challenge : STRIPS.
As you know, strips can come in all sized. The Diva's did not disappoint with their creative interpretations of strips from towels to clothing. Sit back with a cup of coffee or tea and check out the show.

These wonderful towels are by Janice. She didn't get them hemmed in time for the meeting, but we loved them anyway. The yellow strips are just so cheerful.

Tomi took an overshot threading and gave it her "Tomi twist". You can't see in the photo, but there is some glitz in the purple stripe. ..........And she doesn't even have side seams! How is that possible?? (I really need to learn to sew.)

Linda says she was obsessed and just kept weaving towels on this stripe arrangement she came up with. Changing her weft colors kept her interested.

Marilynn discusses her travels from the article to her interpretation.
